The Pythons may have dismantled the British monarchy by that quote, but the effect is coming in with delay.I saw this movie when I was like 7 and this scene was so, so funny to me even though I had no idea who Alice Cooper was or where Milwaukee was or what a socialist mayor was. I think it was just the big words and unexpected intellectualism… I felt the same way about the peasant in Monty Python and the holy grail, with the added bonus of finding out later in life that he was basically right about everything
Tomorrow is actually the first coronation after the film came out.
